Since 2011, Galdamez has helped manage the Entergy Arkansas energy
efficiency portfolio by overseeing seven of Entergy’s 15 Entergy
Solutions programs. To date, these programs have delivered over 300,000
MWh in energy savings (enough energy to power every home in Little Rock
for three months) while only spending 87 percent of the allocated
budgets.

Galdamez is also responsible for coordinating the overall Evaluation,
Measurement and Verification efforts for Entergy Arkansas’ energy
efficiency program with a third party implementer, Tetra Tech. He
manages the Entergy Solutions Annual Report filing responsible for
reporting the progress of Entergy Arkansas energy efficiency programs to
the Arkansas Public Service Commission and the public.

Born and reared in New Orleans, Galdamez is a first generation
American who obtained his bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering at
Tulane University and an MBA at the University of Arkansas at Little
Rock.
